Same colour as my son's JK Unlimited CRD. One piece of advice, the Wrangler CRDs have one design weakness: the fuel filter is mounted on the right hand chassis rail (under the drivers feet on right hand drive models) while the bottom of the filter is protected, there are two plastic 'T' fittings near the filter (for the return fuel line) and these can break if struck by a stray branch kicking up. I have seen two JK CRDs disabled in the bush in the last six months due to this filter and line location problem. The T piece breaks due to impact and fuel gushes out onto the ground and the vehicle can't be restarted (no ability to reprime). Some people simply relocate the fuel filter head onto the firewall, others get a bash plate for that area.

Enjoy the torque, its awesome.

BTW we just had our Jeep Jamboree down here and I was a judge for the JK Unlimited Extreme Mod 35" + tyres category in the Show and Shine; there were some great machines and all of them were CRDs. You don't need to learn spanish to own one but you might have to learn to drive on the right hand side.



Thanks for the heads up, I will check it tonight, and see what can I do about it.

Do yo have a link to see the pictures, I'm going in the 35" route so could help me to see how it looks.

I'm going to Washington next week, then I going to buy some parts, the softop, lift kit, etc.

thanks
